"Due to original Marion guitarist Phil Cunningham's uncompromising New Order commitments, Marion's singer/songwriter Jaime Harding has, with Phil's blessing, taken a leaf out of one of his idols Mark E Smith's book and put together a younger, more vibrant gang of musicians that tear along under his voice like starving northern whippets.

The group members comprise of former Twisted Wheel drummer Blair Murray, Andrew Tarling (Tom Hingley and The Lovers) and Andy McKerlie (Des Horsfall's Kuschty Rye), who, in the words of Alain Whyte (Morrissey's songwriter/guitarist 1990-2005) make Marion sound like northern ruffians kicking up a sound somewhere between the Sex Pistols and The Smiths."
